Mrs. Austin.
In the passing of Mrs. Sophie Jos
iyn Austin, our community loses one
of tliose sweet, rare souls, the typical
old-fashioned mother. Quietly at-tendine-
to the welfare and rnrnfrvrf-. n-f
her family, but not considering her
full task done with this, she was in
terested in all the good works of
church and community. Both old
and young found her their sympa
thetic friend. For young ' people
whose ways differed from those of
her up-bringing, she had a sweet tol
erance and charity for their mistakes.
Mrs. Austin, wife of the late Judge
O. H. Austin, was born in Morristown,
Vt., Feb. 21, 1839, but had lived in
Brownington since infancy, until her
marriage, Oct. 15, 1868, when she
came to Orleans then Barton Land
ing. Six children were born to them.
The oldest, Frederick Orlo, was
drowned in Lake Memphremagog
when ten years old. This tragic end
to a Sunday School picnic will be re
membered by those living in this coun
ty at that time. The surviving chil
dren are Mrs. Clara Winslow and
Mrs. Emma Winslow, both of Au
burndale, Mass., Mrs. Helen Ordway
of Jamaica Plain, Mass., Arthur Aus
tin and Grace Austin of this village.
She had nine grandchildren also.
She joined the Congregational church
in Brownington in 1867. Both she
and her husband were prominent in
starting the Congregational ' church
in this village, and for many years
were untiring workers in all its
branches of activity. On Dec. 30,
1916, she fell asleep, quietly ending
the beautiful well-spent life. Her
children, near relatives and the large
circle of friends have laid her away,
not as those "sorrowing without
hope," but with the "Faith that looks
through death."
"Alas for him who never sees
The stars shine through his cypress
trees Who, hopeless, lays his dead away,
Nor looks to see the breaking day
Across the mournful marbles play!
Who hath not learned, in hours of
faith,
The truth to flesh and sense unknown,
That Life, is ever lord of Death,
And Love can never lose its own!"
IN MEMORIAM.
Inasmuch as an all-wise Providence
hath permitted the recall of our be-
iovea sister, Mrs. Sophia M. Austin,
we, the members of the Congrega
tional church and its auxiliary
branches, tender to the family our
sincere sympathy in this their deep
sorrow and bereavement.
To her children she leaves the rich
heritage of a noble mother's devotion
to their temporal and spiritual well
being. She has gone to her reward, but the
memory of her precept and example
will be a continual influence for good
in our community.
We well know by the sweet Chris
tian life that she has led that 'Our
loss is her eternal gain,' and there
fore we bow to the will of our Heav
enly Father, asking him to help us so
to live that we may join her in the
church triumphant.

Winget-Josiyn. ...
A very attractive wedding which
much interests Orleans people, oc
curred Monday afternoon at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Winget, when
their daughter, Gladys Mildred, be
came the wife of Gordon Rollin Jos
iyn, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Josiyn.
At 2.30 o'clock to the strains of the
Lohengrin wedding march, played by
the bride's brother, Ibra Winget, the
bridal couple unattended, entered the
living room, where beneath an arch
of evergreen beautifully decorated
with white bells, the double ring ser
vice was performed by the Rev. W. A.
Warner of Barton, in the presence of
the immediate relatives of the bride
and groom.
The charming bride wore a travel
ing suit of plum velour trimmed with
Hudson seal with hat to harmonize,
and carried a shower bouquet of
white roses.
Delicious refreshments were served
in the dining room during the social
hour following the ceremony, after
which the happy couple took unex
pected leave for their wedding jour
ney. The numerous and beautiful re
membrance gifts included cut glass,
linen, silver, electrical dishes and sub
stantial checks. The groom's gift to
the bride was 100 pieces of Communi
ty silver.
Mrs. Josiyn is one of Orleans' most
attractive and lovable young ladies
and has hosts of friends both young
and old.
Mr. Josiyn is one of the popular
young men of the village and a most
successful sales manager for The
Greenfield Buick company.
Mr. and Mrs. Josiyn left on the 3.50

the best wishes of their many friends.
